Bayern Munich won their third consecutive Bundesliga title thanks to Wolfsburg's 1-0 loss to Borussia Monchengladbach on Sunday. Bayer had done their bit by beating Hertha Berlin 1-0 on Saturday. This is the 25 top-flight title for Bayern Munich and the 24th since the Bundesliga started under this name in 1963.
Pep Guardiola's men are eyeing a treble this season as they are in the Champions League and German Cup semi-finals. The first test in those two competitions is on Tuesday when they face rivals Borussia Dortmund in the German Cup. They have already achieved the domestic double in the last two seasons and completed a treble two years ago.
Spanish coach Guardiola has won five league titles in his six years as a manager: three with Barcelona and now two with Bayern. His past and present will clash in the Champions League semi-finals in May as Bayern will face Barca. Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge said: "Retaining the title is a magnificent achievement. All credit to the coach and the team. They've been fantastic throughout, in a season following a World Cup where we had a host of players in action. We'll have a magnificent party at some stage, no worries. But all in good time. When we do, it'll be a huge celebration."
Bayern are 5/2 at Bet365 to win the Champions League this season.

Now they can focus on Barcelona and semi finals of Champions league. They have a lot of troubles with injury players but i am sure that Guardiola will figure it out and make good starting line up to be a decent rival to Barcelona.

National championship of Germany's boring competition to follow because every year the question is who will be the second. It is known that the first place is reserved for Bayern Munich who is financially far ahead of all. Each year, buying the best players in the opponent's team and so weak competition.

With the new contract with Adidas only will this difference increased Bayern's favor.

Bayern Munich is the football club with the biggest budget and organization in Germany so it's no wonder that their domination in Bundesliga continue and a treble is possible this season. It's a little boring for the past years in the Bundesliga but it's not their fault that the other teams can't compete with them.

I thin that Bayern Munich is lucky because they play in Germany and they don't have rival who will compete with them. If Bayern will play in Spanish LaLiga or English Premier league I think that Bayern will finish third or fourth. They are dominant in Bundesliga only because they don't have decent opponent.

Bayern Munich is on of the best teams on the world and in Germany they are dominant special this year when Dortmund was very very weak. They secured title and now they have semi finals of DFB pokal against Borussia Dortmund and now that is most important for them to complete this season.
